My storytelling game is now on Amazon!

Nostalgia is a storytelling game for 2+ players. Play old, retired heroes who have lost much of their greatness, and some of their wits, but still remember the thrilling adventures and epic journeys of their youth.

@gianfrancocont9 Hi! I'm a long-time user and proponent of your books for professional development purposes here in Sweden. Thank you!

I have a question: You used to have a great blog post discussing creative products, but it's no longer available. Was this intentional? [1/2]

@gianfrancocont9 I'm talking about the post "Redefining ‘creativity’ in the foreign language classroom," which used to be available here gianfrancoconti.com/2015/07/17/red…. I refer to it in one of my courses, and while I could use the Internet Archive, I thought I'd ask you![2/2]

Hacking Chinese contains over a million words about how to learn Mandarin better. I’ve distilled the most useful information and advice into four courses.

Get $31 off any course or $128 off when buying 3, through September 9!
